no they're running at NO on a hagen 40w glomat ballast. my wh7 can only power 2 vhos. I could overdrive them, but I find they emit enough blue that I don't need to..plus at the price tag, I don't want to fry them too fast

Did not find any reference to VHOs at all.

Check out the massive RC VHO thread:

Bev, I checked again and seen Andy only mentioned 5ft. 140w Philips vho actinic bulbs. I dont know what else they have or where he purchased them, but can find out if you wish.

Vic,

Thanks for the link :biggrin:

Doug,

Thanks for the offer to check further into your friend's tubes, but it won't be necessary.

I went back to my old neighbour's place this morning where I got the almost-killed me frags. He's running URI VHOs on his 4' and 6' tanks. He needs new tubes soon, so I think we're going to do a shipment together. I'll get 4 50/50s and mix and match them with the Aquasuns and Super Actinics we already have until we get a good combination.

:eek:

Missed this thread?

Actually, wasn't near death at all when all was said and done. But I was pretty freaked :eek:
